TERRIBLE WATERSPOUT.

Towns In PennsyIyania Swept by the

PITTSBURGH, Pa. June S.-A special from
Jamestown, Pa, says: The food yesterday
was caused by a water spout west OF Hoov-
erviIie. Somerset County The village
entirely under water and the destruction OF
property is great. The bridges above here
were carried of. The destruction Of prop
erty is enormous. At Hooverville the work
of the flood is appalling. Twenty resi-
dences were washed of their foundations.

over their ruined homes. In Grubtown,

O'BRIEN SCORED.

n cNacIkIn Denounces the Irish Editor For
His Lack of Sympathy With EVicted
Tenants in America.
NEW YORK, June 10-John McMackin,
leader of the Henry George party in this
city, whose position as chairman of the
mass meeting in honor OF William O'Brien
caused the latter gentleman to deny him
self to the eyes of the great throng. has
written an open letter touching that episode
and the denunciations which O'Brien
hurled at him in his speech at the Hoffman
House banquet on Monday night Nc
Mackin is very bitter in his denunciation Of
O'Brien and those with whom he asso-
ciated in New York, and the CEN
trail idea of the letter is that O'Brien
does not want to free the ten
ants of Ireland from landlordism by nation
alizing land, but merely wants TO change
landlords; that after going to Canada to
denounce Lord Lansdowne, he comes TO
New York and hobnobs with landlords who
are habitually guilty of evictions as cruel
as those practiccd against the Luggacur-
ran tenants of the Governor General. Nc
Mackin denounces those who banqueted
Mr. O'Brien and lauded his work in Canada
as hypocrites. He says the cash sympa-
thies for evicted Irish tenants are very
tender, but he has not heard a word from
Tammany Hall or Bishop O'Farren I'm
condemnation of the brutal evictions
couple of weeks ago in Pennsylvania,
where scores of families were pitched
out of their houses in the streets and
obliged to remain there all night, as the
landlord forbade, under penalty of evic-
ton, anyone to give them shelter" He de-
clares that the position of the Irish tenant
is better than that of his American COM
peer; that the former, if his rent is I'M
justly high, can have it reduced by appeal
t. the courts, whereas the American ten
ant must pay up or get out, and concludes
hat Mr.. O'Brien, in refusing to attend a
meeting on behalf of oppressed American
tenants, was, to say the least, inconsistent,
since he had come across the ocean for the
sole purpose of denouncing a man for OPP
pressing Irish tenants in the same way.

The Outlook Quite Serious - Protection
Urgently Requested.
NoGALEs, A. T., June 10.-The Indian
outbreak in this Territory is assuming Sc
rious proportions. Widespread depreda-
tons indicate that there are many more
than seventeen bucks, as first reported, on
the war path. AdvIces are coming from
all directions of outrages. Word comes
from w. E. Leek, of Crittenden, that he
and two others were aroused Wednesday
morning by several rife shots, and
found they were surrounded by hos
tile Indians. Mike Gsace, one of
the party, an old pioneer and a
prominent citizen of Arizona, was killed.
The other two made their escape through
canon, pursued by the savages. The
people of Crittenden wired to the station
agent at Nogales, ''For Gods sake send US
aid" Soldiers in charge of Captain Lee
were sent Immediately. A portion of the
command under Captain Mutt is on the trail
of the hostiles. A courier reports that he
ran into a party of Indians and is now chas-
ing them over the hills. They seem to be
making for the Patagonia mountains, and
it is quite evident that the hostiles intend
to reach the Sierra Madre mountains. A
telegram from Calabasas says: ''The In
dians fired upon McCullock's ranch. and
are on their way south. Juan Cenochio,
commandant of Magdalena, Mexico. has
twenty-five mounted men, who leave to-day
to try and intercept the Indians at the prln-
cipal passes along the international lines.

Several Persons Killed and Injured and
Buildings Wrecked.
CHATTANOOGA, Tenn, June 1O.-A tank of
gasoline exploded yesterday afternoon in
the two-story brick building at the corner
of Fourth and Market streets and spread
with great rapidity to the grocery store of
]. Moering and the Morgan House, three
story frame structure. The occupants
barely escaped with their lives. Henry
Her and Matt Peak, firemen, were buried
in mass of debris by falling wall. Her
was killed and Peak so badly bruised that he
will die. Humphrey Reeves, manager of the
Standard Gas Machine and Economizer
Company, was blown out of the building
across the pavement with his clothes
ablaze. He threw himself into the gutter
and extinguished the fire, but not until he
was horribly burned. James Reynolds
and W. d. Miller of Washington, ID. C.,
two white men, and a negro named Peter
Jones were also terribly burned. Several
other firemen were slightly injured, and
some were overcome by heat. The hnan-
cial loss is about $1,000, partly insured.

WASHINGTON, June 9.-An order has been
issued by the War Department directing
the dismissal, ''wIthout character" OF w.
II. Green, the only colored man that has
ever been admitted to the Signal Service.
His appointment, about two years ago, and
assignment to duty Il Pensacola, caused

ceive him and was reduced to the ranks,
Green being put in charge. He did not give
satisfaction. however, and was sent TO
Rochester, n. Y. 1t is stated that his rec
ord while there has been very unsaiisfac-
tory, and that had he been white man his
career in the Signal Service would have
been summarilV cut short long ago, but

nifty TO improve led to his retention until in
formation reached the Signal Service au-

stopped For Want OF Coke.

CHICAGO, June 10.-When the six o'clock
whistle sounded in South ChIca go last even
ing 1900 of the 2, 100 men employed in the
North Chicago rolling mills were compelled
by the coke famine TO stop work for an in
definite time in the furnace and steel mills.
The rail mill will also shut down. and the
1,5O0 men employed there will be laid on
Saturday night The stoppage OF the mill is
the cause of considerable dependency in
South Chicago. OF the 1900 inhabitants
in South Chicago the employees OF the
mills, with their families, number 5000,
and their failure TO receive wages is cal
culated to work considerable hardship upon
them unless there be speedy termination
Of the coke strike.

the stage of his theatre. Gen. Sherman
presided, with Miss Ada Rehan at his right,
Just before the party broke up the general
paid glowing compliment to the dramatic
art. He concluded by speaking Of its won
derful power of expressing human emotions.
But said he, slowly and impressively, "if
you have ever heard the bugle call TO battle
--if you have ever seen a rifle leveled to kill,
and heard the ballet whistle through the air
If wounded comrade has ever been laid
Mt your feet, and you have put your hand
upon his heart and felt 1t flutter and go out,
you will realize that there are some things
your art cannot express. Good night" And
the hushed and attentive actors felt that the
general had made as dramatic an exit as any
that was ever made upon the stage. Ar
